What about Madlib's transition from "the label" to "Madlib Invasion" around the timing of Egon leaving the label?

Madlib vs Lootpack? Didn't hear about that one...

I thought madlib "leaving" stones throw was more doing what's best for him as opposed to an actual beef with the label. I thought he said madlib invasion was created to release more unheard music & sign new talent. However this IS madlib and the new talent could be more members of YNQ or DJ Rels cousin. Only time will tell.

I doubt it's gonna be epic. Maybe one quick scene with madlib and the rest is stuff we've already seen/know. This seems like another doc for those who don't know much about the label.Hope I'm wrong!

I don't think you're wrong at all.

Regarding Madlib vs LP, I'm referring to Lib leaving the group to pursue YNQ while their was kind of some buzz off the Antidote record which was never followed up with anything as a group. I'm not saying it was a bad move, especially if you look at the trajectory of each member's career, nor that I've ever heard of any beef going down between them.

ehm isn't madlib invazion just his own label on stones throw records? i don't really know how the music biz works but i guess it's just his own little label and that stones throw does all all the distribution and stuff..

romes explained this in his last interview, i posted it on the boards

he basically said that they tried to get together and do it but Otis was creativley in another place (ynq etc)!

so it didnt flow creativley

so they left him alone like real friends would and let him do what he did but he promised another LP album

I will say though, that by trying to shamelessly promote Earl Sweatshirt along with the doc pretty much convinced me to not donate.

I don't mind earl so much as long as he finds his own style separate from 90's Eminem...Tyler on the other hand is the most frustrating figure of the group. I'd donate if this were a Madlib doc showing his progress from the mid nineties till now. It'd never happen ,but it'd be cool to see a doc based on his studio practices, jam sessions and general weird shit so we could have a deeper understanding of his music straight from the horses mouth.
